Would you share the contact information on where you got this from? 

 

I presume it is the RIGHT end connector?

    I buy it from Hong Kong / Macau distributor (Winco)

     

    http://www.winco.com.hk/

     

    I bought it from their office directly as they do not sell it online.

    HK$350 about USD45

     

    The most funny is that netgear USA headoffice not sell it ...........

    Some people in this forum said netgear not selling power adapter is NOT truth.

    take a look at the link below

     

    https://www.netgear.com/home/accessories/pa7000p/

    https://netgear.techgear.com.hk/products/pa-332-10939-02?_pos=2&_sid=e14e96854&_ss=r

     

    Netgear selling 12V power adapter online, but they just NOT selling 19V power adapter online only.

     

    Even a india online shop selling this original RAXE500 / RAX200 power adapter.............

    https://www.hatke.co.in/products/19v-3-16a-dc-original-genuine-netgear-ac-dc-power-adapter

     

    Good Luck!

     

    Best Regards,

      Great. Will keep this on hand. Glad you found source. 

       

      I WOULD RECOMMEND that users try to not loose there power adapters, if and when they move or do something with there routers. Try to keep the power adapter with the router in the box the router came in or in a 2nd hand box when moving. Don't separate them. 

       

      For accidental damaged adapters, i.e. cord was cut by accidental uses or animal exposer. Depending on how bad the damage is, the long cord can be spliced back together. 

       

      If the main brick is damaged or maybe goes bad or gets damaged from power outages, then we have one source here to get another. Need to check to see if both USA and other regions are available at this source.

       

      Thank you much.

        Is the one you got from the one in Hong Kong a USA compatible adapter? i.e. Has the two small connector blades on the adapter side?
